Planning application

23 Redgates Place Chelmsford Essex CM2 6BG

Granted Chelmsford 20/05299/TPO Trees

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

Rear Garden - T38, T39 and T40 Oak's to the rear of the property so have a crown reduction of up to 2.5meters. Reasons: client wants to keep on top of the maintenance of the trees, they have previously had work done to them about 6 years ago; crown reduction on all 3 trees would be best appropriate; crown height and spread is getting very big. neighbouring gardens are affected by the height and overhanging branches into their property; proposed works would keep the trees a healthy size and reduce the light/shading being caused to the house and neighbouring houses/gardens. All cuts to be made to suitable growth points and comply with the British standard. BS3998.
